Dataset Refresh using a trigger

Yes, you can initiate a refresh request for a Semantic model via API calls.  In fact, you can even request refresh of a single table or even a partition (if you use incremental refresh).

These API calls can be done from PowerShell or from PowerAutomate or from any otther tool that allow (automatic) OAUTh2/AAD authentification.

Note that these calls only refresh a request.  For refresh monitoring you need to create additional processes.

Thanks so much for the help.  We were able to get the triggers working and the refreshes are executing based on a database event now.
